This is the fourth and final month of a nail challenge which I am participating in, you are set three colours and you select three polishes to represent each colour. Four days, four different manicures using said polishes. Want to join in, then click here. I ended up doing this for this challenge, some subtle stamping:

Bundle Monster 312, stamped with Primark - Glo Baby Glo.

These are the three polishes which are to be used for these challenges. Expect to see three more for this month. Barry M's retro Blue (2), Leighton Denny's Be My Berry and finally Primark's Glo Baby Glo!

Nails: Under the Sea

I did these nails a while back, I think that they look almost under the sea like. I wish I'd went on to do some nail art on top of this, perhaps Finding Nemo.

Sunday Stamping: Earth Day

Earth Day 2013 is actually tomorrow, however the challenge was to do nails inspired by earth day. I did these using the cling film / saran wrap method and stamped between the layers, although it has came up quite subtle.

Base Polish: Barry M - Retro Blue
La Femme - Mint Cream

Stamping Plate: Bundle Monster 312
Stamping Polish: Primark - Glo Baby Glo

31 Day Challenge: Inspired by Favourite Colour

Day 28 and the challenge is to do some nail art inspired by my favourite colour...

Base Polish: NYX Girls - Purple Ink
Spots Polish: Barry M - Retro Blue

Nail Polish: Battle of the Blues

Battle of the blues, so many blues to choose from!

Barry M - Blueberry Ice Cream, Collection 2000 - Electric Dreams, Essence - Let's Get Lost, MUA - Smurf Blue, Barry M - Chameleon Blue, Stargazer - Blue Chrome, Miss Sporty - Pop Fiction, Models Own - True Blue, Barry M - Retro Blue, Barry M - Blue Plum Gelly, Max Factor - Odyssey  Kleancolor - Metallic Blue, Sleek - Oxford, Sinful Colors - Hot Spot, OPI - Road House Blues, Eyeko - Cosmic, No.7 - Betty Blues, ELF - Navy, MUA - Navy

Cutting down all of those polishes to just four wasn't too difficult, Barry M - Blueberry Ice Cream is such a nice cream base polish perfect for nail art. Miss Sporty - Pop Fiction is quite a unique periwinkle blue, shame it smells really weird.

Making the final two are Barry M and OPI. The Blue Plum is just so rich of a colour and covers in just one coat.

And the winner is... Road House Blues! It's just more of a colder navy compared to the Barry M. Something very wearable, plenty of polish in there (15ml) and the brush makes application so easy.
